Snowfall is expected in many parts of Latvia overnight on Saturday, with snow covering the ground in Vidzeme. Snowfall is also expected to continue occasionally during the day.
Strong northerly and north-easterly winds will blow, gusting 15-20 metres per second in many places on Saturday. The wind will slow down on Sunday, but will still be gusty. The sky will clear on Sunday, making for a sunnier day. Precipitation is not expected on Sunday.
Forecasts for the duration of the cold wave are still variable. Some scenarios suggest the warmth may return around 12-13 April, while others predict that the cold weather may continue until Easter, with a few more snowy days possible before then.
